Exquisite workmanship is poured into every detail of this Don Donnithorne designed residence. You could be forgiven for thinking this is an exclusive Lodge for the most discerning of visitors, such is the accommodation in this splendid property! Named 'House of the Year' in 1997, this is a home worthy of acclaim.
Large and lavish, the house spans more than 700sqm and is set on 4636sqm of park-like grounds. Landscaping is professional and beautifully established, and four car garaging will be a drawcard for many. Expansive and luxurious entertaining areas, formal and informal, outside and in, unfold across the ground floor. Here you will find several living areas, a stone walled wine cellar set up for formal dining, a huge office space equipped with a kitchenette, outdoor hot tub, an indoor pool, spa and sauna, and a separate dining pavilion outside with stunning views of the surrounding hills. All this boasts features and amenities too numerous to detail here. Rest assured there is remarkable attention to detail and quality of finish in this striking home.
Natural timbers and rustic Schist combine to create warmth throughout. Especially evident in the well-appointed kitchen where timber flooring, ceiling and joinery, combine with state of the art granite benchtops, and both electric and gas cooking solutions. All seven bedrooms have wonderful hill views, and the master suite is simply sumptuous!
Nestled at the foot of our Port Hills, facing North, and sheltered from the easterly, this enviable location is undoubtedly a microclimate. One of our most famous 'suntraps', it is no surprise that the area has supported intensive market gardening and stone fruit orchards for well over a century. With over one acre of land, this is a home at one with the environment. Te Tihi-o-Kahukura, or Castle Rock, towers behind, forming an imposing and majestic backdrop to this impressive situation.
Properties of this magnitude rarely come to market, and this is a home of incomparable value unlikely to ever be replicated. Don't miss this opportunity!
